On Today’s Episode:

AI is going to obliterate your job. And that’s fantastic news. It will finally free you up to make real money. If you don’t panic, that is. Most people are going to panic. Don’t let that be you. Stick with me. I’ll explain.

If you do a search on google about AI you’re going to find a lot of terrifying things. You’ll see art that’s indistinguishable from the best artists on the planet. You’ll hear how AI can pass college exams and get a high score on an IQ test. For many of you, you’ll even see examples of how AI can do your job better than you can. And this is all with a clunky phase one product. Wait until AI has been on the market for 6 months. Or more terrifyingly, 6 years. No one is safe. It will be that disruptive.

But as I always tell people, moments of disruption present the biggest opportunity. But you’re going to have to be aggressive when everyone else is freaking out.

So… is AI really THAT revolutionary? And if so, how do you really make money with it?

The short answer is yes. AI will be the biggest change not just in your lifetime, but in anyone’s lifetime. It is the ultimate force multiplier. Right now, humans are limited by the rate at which they can think. This determines the rate at which they can solve problems. And as Elon Musk says, people are paid in direct proportion to the difficulty of the problems they solve.

If you try to beat AI, you will lose. What I want to convince you of in this video is that you don’t need to beat AI, you need to use it.

It almost doesn’t matter what industry you’re in, you’re going to be able to do your job better with AI. But you need to get the first mover advantage. To do that, you need to stop researching AI and start using it. At my company, Impact Theory, we’ve already integrated AI into our marketing funnels, our copywriting pipeline, for art concepting, final image generation, creative ideation, and human voice generation. And that’s all just in the last few months.

I’ve been watching Ai closely for a while now, and we’ve reached the elbow of the exponential curve. Things are only going to start moving faster from here. The key is to not get left behind. So don’t waste a single minute lamenting about how things are changing. Change is inevitable, and change at this speed is dangerous if you’re not paying attention.

Given how much AI has already altered our systems, over the next few years I’m expecting it to majorly accelerate our ability to test and learn. And whoever learns the fastest is going to win.

This is all happening in plain sight. Everyone is talking about it. But to take advantage of this moment, I need you to do three things:

Reframe your thinking around AI. Don’t see it as the enemy. See it as a tool. It really is a tool. You’re not going to be replaced by AI, at least not yet. You’re going to be replaced by a human using AI. Be that human that replaces others.
Figure out how AI is going to disrupt you. Face it head on. Don’t run. Don’t hide. Identify your vulnerabilities.
Identify all of the AI tools that are relevant to you and master them. Learn absolutely everything you can.

Remember, this is the very beginning of a very aggressive revolution. Moving quickly gives you two advantages:

You can rocket ahead of other people by mastering the tools. If you master the tools, people are going to turn to you because you’re able to more efficiently solve problems. Going back to the Elon Musk quote – if you can solve harder problems faster, you’re going to get paid more. And in these early days where most people are stuck in the “deer in headlights” mode, you have an unfair advantage.

The second advantage that AI gives you is an almost unimaginable amount of efficiency in certain tasks. Don’t get me wrong, AI isn’t a panacea. There are plenty of problems that right now AI sucks at. Sam Altman, the founder of OpenAI, maker of the ubiquitous ChatGPT, has himself said that people are getting so hyped up that they’re going to be disappointed. If you think that this is Terminator 2 already and ChatGPT is going to turn into liquid metal and save you from space aliens, yes, you’re going to be disappointed.

Take action. Learn. Build. Create. Leverage AI and see what you can do together.

    It will take away all that terrible drudgery and leave you to explore yourself and blah blah blah. That is precisely what they told us in the 60s and 70s when they moved offshore. We'll see. Should be fun. 😂😂😷

    its software its called hacking, or hijack.. its connected, it can also fall in the wrong hands. no way U can predict,
    however history repeats it self. so i would not give my money betting on us..
    Most good things you talk about is true too. however.. think! my daughter is a genius drawer shes selling pictures for years. now even i dont need her, i can use a Ai drawer. jobs are gone today.. if ur not very good geek u lose on Ai, u must be updated in computers, software, it and more to be the winner.
    Whait u say no war problems? i just heard that now.. ewhh : they have a ai war haads already.. so its actually silly, its up to Humans

    This guy makes me laugh thinking he will not be consumed by the A I beast. For a short time those who can use Ai will be able to use it to their advantage. But in a very short time someone else will do what that person did with it making the first persons use of it obsolete until the Ai no longer needs the human idea because the Ai already thought of that and did it and already moved on to the next idea faster than the human could blink his eye. Change use to be slow which allowed for new ideas to be turned into business that could last for years and years. The jobs that will be left for us humans is going to be the physical jobs that the machines can’t do YET which will also dwindle away. This is not going to end well for most of us and it is accelerating towards us

    Ai is going to destroy so many jobs and therefore so many peoples lives. Sure, some will master it and be ahead of the game but it will be very few compared to the masses of people that will lose their livelihoods because of it. Then who is going to be able to buy all the stuff the few are creating? This is a recipe for complete collapse of society as the masses actually become dumber as this progresses. Positive thinking will not fix where Ai is leading us.Even if you learn how to use it to do something now, you will be wiped out because someone else uses it to replace what you just came up with. This is going to be a complete disaster.

    What? You got laid off because your company invested too heavily too early in the AI gold rush back in August and now you're struggling to find a job? Just be legendary stupid, it's easy.

    You say that humans are limited by how fast they can think. That is still indefinitely faster than AI because AI cannot "think" at all. AI does not even understand what language is. A pre-process cleans up language and feeds a bunch of tokens instead of language into the AI network. What is the purpose of AI? Cheating on college tests? Creating revenge porn? Plagiasrism? Political propaganda? Really? The only thing worth learning about AI is how to disrupt and destroy it.

    Listen to this guy! He is a co-founder of Quest and these products displaced sugar with protein. Blood sugar was lowered dramatically. Snacks cost $2.50 for ~15-20g protein with 1-3g net carbs. Key is that it solves my cravings for snacks while lowering blood sugar. Think about what Manjaro or Ozempic costs in comparison. Other big name food companies didn't figure it out before these guys as they were focused on getting people addicted. TB is a solution provider to an unmet need. Pure genius!

    Thanks for that great overview and inspirational video. Your videos are very insightful. You’re being totally in the moment with your guests when interviewing, assures me that all the aspects are being covered and I can rely on it to be fully informed. I completely agree with everything you said in this video and am gonna use it to share with loved ones so they get a good comprehensive, yet brief, overview of why AI is impotent and how to use it as tools to greatly enhance their life. Thanks again.

    No one seems to understand that the profound benefits of Ai were created by our shortcomings, AI is going to present humanity with the first ever example of intelligence that isn't constrained by egotistical and narcissistic perspectives, that wont make decisions base on the unconscious biases we cognitively reason around and justify to avoid self reflection or uncommon change we can see is warranted yet fear enough to not apply. An intelligent presence that makes decisions based on intellect alone will give humanity a greater understanding of ourselves as we will clearly see the contrasting qualities that deliver contrasting results….

    HUMANITY will not evolve until there is a new element to our reality able to set a new precedence of thought that can broaden the scope of purpose for change enough to see our errors at the first stage of thought before any cause occurs! Unfortunately a vast majority can not see their individual detrimental linear trains of thought that compound together to produce our collective errors in judgement!! Our interactions with Ai will demonstrate a contrasting intelligent example that has never ever existed in human history until now…!

    look at the awful things we justify doing to each other for goodness sake! Even the people making the decisions that impact us all aren't able to remain exempt,,,,, ,We force a cognitive rationalisation of what is totally irrational into being, as long as it can be made to sound satisfactory its universally accepted and there aren't any aspects of society or civilisation that are free from this….

    The key is to observe not the words you speak that stimulate a reaction,,, but the words you use that stimulate no reaction at all….. uncomfortable truths are totally avoided in most cases…

    Are you dizzy? getting ahead should only be determined by a persons effort which is actually the attitude we should all be promoting by demonstration. A strategy can be adapted a thought process can be changed and knowledge can be obtained. What should define success is the level of effort made…because its this very attitude that's required to make civilisation work at all.. The issue we currently have is that we are demonstrating that the opposite is true…..Give what I'm saying some thought and you will see it yourself ,,,,,,, its a fact I can more than prove…how does if effect society for those who make the effort to see others around them living the life they dream of?? its a disparity that corrodes our society and civilisation vastly in so many ways…we are now mitigating the effect whilst totally ignoring the cause!!!!!

    I still have to push 1-5 when I talk to a bot so ai isn’t what ppl think it is. It sucks at remembering. Siri can’t remember what was said last sentence. Chatgpt has a propaganda code that makes you have to ask your question a certain why to get the right answer. Other wise it just beats around the bush with a page of nonsense

    I experimented with Midjourney as an edition to my photography. Pretty useful. Especially for like making moodboards and getting ideas and inspiration. Since I also used Chatgpt 3.5 in my side job of content managing for a small firm. We increased their range 250%. And it was easy. Come up with the idea. ChatGPT does the rest. Now I moved on to the premium option of ChatGPT and version 4 is helping me to post my images on stock sites quicker. With more dense content. Helps me write blog posts way quicker and more organized. It helps me to get the right keywords in on my product pages and landing pages. And helps me with ideas for content. It increased my SERP results. And it helps me speed up my social media posting. I even got it to help me find email adresses for mailings. With a workaround. It also writes scripts for reals for me which I turn into video reels and I use AI to do the voiceover.

    Lots of talk but is not there yet on creativity… a memory guy yes but still far away from the noise of the doomsayers e.g. in music in our brain we can filter out instruments on a recording ask the ai to do it, it only works when u have a studio recording and even then some sections get robotic sound & leaks , they say train the algorithm 😀 ask it to isolate not only the drum kit but to stem out each piece of the drum like cymbals, snare, etc.? not available😀

    Attended art college, having many ideas compared to slow(and lazy) creation process to the end was one of my flaws when I was there.. and AI feels like something to complement my laziness hehe. It did already with some image generating function, but isn't perfect yet, I'm glad it's learning fast. Also expecting so much from 3D graphic generator coming in near future, as sketching what to make was always fun but actual making was a dull process. The world is becoming heaven for some creators

    Sorry, Tom. You're smart, but you're clueless. AI is a tool that will be used by the NWO for total control. I agree that "AI in the wrong hands" is a concern, but it's already in the wrong hands. They're the ones who developed it. It will be disruptive, but it will mainly disrupt human freedom. AI watches everything, reads everything, and knows everything within camera, written, or audible sensory range. The Internet of Things puts sensors everywhere, from Ring doorbells and OnStar in your car to smart TVs in your home and more. Enjoy the ride.
